41. Pheraspis polioxxjtha. 



Pheraspis polioxutha, Turn., Proe. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., 1903, p. 62. 

 This species varies in the distinctness of the dentate transverse lines on 

 forewings.

42. Pheraspis mesotypa. 



Pheraspis mesotypa, Turn., Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., 1903, p. 62. 

 N. Qland: Thursday Is., Townsville. 



43. Pheraspis symmetea. 



Pheraspis symmetra, Turn., Proe. Roy. Soc. Qland., 1917, p. 73. 



I am not sure as to the distinctness of this species. My description shows 

 that it resembles polioxutha rather than mesotypa, but with short antennal pec- 

 tinations. It is possible that I mistook the sex, and that the type is a $ of 

 polioxutha. 



N.W. Aust.: Derby. 



44. Pheraspis spodea. 



Pheraspis spodea, Turn., Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., 1903, p. 63. 

 Exceptional in 12 of hindwings being approximated to middle of cell only, 

 and 3 and 4 being rather widely separate. 



N. Qland: Claudie River (Kershaw); Qland: Brisbane. 



Gen. 21. D i s c o p h l e b i a. 



Discophlebia, Feld., llirn., Proe. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., 1903, p. 65. 



Head smooth, with a more or less marked rounded projection of frons. Eyes 

 with a posterior inferior tuft of incurved cilia. Tongue strong. P'alpi short 

 (less than 1), porreet, rough-scaled; terminal joint short. Antennae of c? 

 laminate or very shortly pectinate with fascicles of cilia; of 2 simple. Thorax 

 smooth, without crests. Posterior tibiae with two pairs of spurs. Forewings 

 with 2 from shortly before end of cell, 5 from middle of cell, areole long, 6 from 

 near end of areole, 7, 8, 9 stalked, 10 separate or short-stalked with them. Hind- 

 wings with 3 and 4 connate or approximate at origin, 5 from middle of cell, 6 

 and 7 long-stalked, 12 approximated to cell to its end.
